How often should i have an endoscopy if i have gastritis?

Most of the time repeated upper endoscopic (EGD) study is unnecessary. Take care.

Repeat endoscopy is not necessary for gastritis. The overall question should be what is causing the inflammation in the stomach. If it is bacterial (Helicobacter pylori), that organism will need to be treated. You do not necessarily need any further procedures down the road. Good luck.
